A wonderful London vacation rental, complete with a beautiful balcony which overlooks the Tate Modern, the Shard and the Young Vic Theatre. This modern apartment has light and contemporary décor throughout and is perfect for adult groups and families. It is the ideal home for those searching to stay in the heart of the city.

Living & EatingFull length windows provide the large living space with excellent natural light, and simple décor compliments the modern ambience of this space. A generous sofa completes the picture of convivial convenience and charm.

A well equipped, modern kitchen allows for the chef of your party to whip up simple suppers, with a dining table to seat four.

With spectacular views over the London skyscape, the apartment is flanked at all sides by a balcony; a luxury in the midst of the teeming metropolis, and a rare suntrap indeed for crisp mornings..

Bedrooms & BathroomsWith two luxurious bedrooms, this apartment comfortably sleeps up to four guests. The master bedroom has a UK king size (5ft wide) bed, complete with an en-suite bathroom, furnished with a bath, twin basins and WC. The second bedroom has a twin-singles, which can be configured as a Superking (6ft wide). The family bathroom has a walk in shower.

Access & LayoutThis property is located on the fourth floor, and there is an elevator within the building. All rooms are arranged across one level.

On Your DoorstepYou are a 10 minute walk from both Southwark and Borough tube stations, where you will have quick access to Westminster and Green Park, and central and south London using the Jubilee and Northern lines.

In this area of London, you can never be too far away from a pub, and Wireworks is no exception. Try The George, just over 10 minutes on foot, for a truly traditional English pub experience.

In terms of location, this is a theatregoer’s dream, with Shakespeare’s Globe, the eponymous Young Vic as well as the Old Vic a pleasant walk from the apartment. The Tate Modern, Imperial War Museum and now the tallest building in Europe, the Shard, are also within striking distance.

Finally, don’t miss one of London’s most renowned food markets - the Ivy Lettings team highly recommends Borough Market, which is only moments away. Open Monday to Saturday, we highly recommend a trip and particularly suggest visiting on an empty stomach.

This is a great apartment. Light , spacious, clean, well appointed, great South London views of the Shard and Millennium Wheel. It proved a great base while we were in the city. We liked it so much we extended our stay there twice! Easy communication with the team that manage it and fast response from them. Thoroughly recommend.

Lovely place, clean, modern and great location in a secure building. Ivy were very friendly and accommodated us with arrival and departure time/luggage etc. We really appreciated the effort you made to accommodate us, and we will surely book it again very soon and recommend it to family and friends.

This was very clean and well-kept, generally exactly as advertised and as the pictures show. They were very easy to work with and our security deposit was refunded quickly. The location was great - close to public transportation or within walking distance if you don't mind walking a bit. We loved this apartment! We had 4 staying here and had plenty of room. It's a big city so it does get loud at night - especially if it's warm when you visit and you keep the windows open (no AC) - so we used earplugs a lot for sleeping. Not unexpected when staying in a big city though! If we are even in London again we would stay here!

I've used Ivy Lettings before for work trips to London, but this was my first time staying here. Location wise it was perfect - really easy to travel to and from the office and also being a bit further east it was nice to see a different part of the city. The views are also a huge plus - I'd definitely stay again on my next trip.

This was a fantastic apartment just as described. Light, bright and very modern - loved it. Communication was quick and easy and the whole process was trouble free. Great views with all the mod cons. Location was great within a short walking distance to Southwark, Borough, Waterloo & London Bridge (and stations). Borough Markets only 10 minute walk away too. Highly recommended!

You can tell how much this owner cares about his apartment, it is immaculate, and very well cared for. We went to Ivy Lettings on recommendation from friends and explained what we wanted. They were efficient and friendly from the start, and we were very happy with their service. We felt lucky to stay in this home, and to have found such a personal service in London. We will definitely be coming back.

Ideally located within walking distance of central London. We stayed there over New Year and had fabulous uninterrupted views from the London Eye (and fireworks) to the 'Gherkin' and round to the 'Shard of Glass'. Borough Market is so close and a must-do. Tate Modern is barely a ten minute walk too. Despite the proximity to so much it was remarkably quiet. The street parking was free over the weekend. The flat itself is wonderfully spacious, modern, well-equipped and felt very safe. It comfortably accommodated the four of us and this made for a very relaxing stay. Totally recommended.

We love contemporary architecture and this is a smart and stylish 'penthouse' in a great part of London. The space is very generous, and nicely appointed. There are two small terraces with wonderful views to the 'Eye' and the 'Shard'. Saturday morning make sure to start at the Borough Market and bring back your bounty to the apartment for a delicious brunch.

We stayed at the Wireworks apartment last week with our college-aged son and agree with the comments others have posted. The apartment has a nice balcony with views of the neighborhood, the training facilty for the London Fire Brigage (it was fascinating to watch 20 trainees practicing putting out fires!), a soccer field, and the London Eye. We appreciated the cleanliness, space, and comfort of the apartment. It is a bit out of the way (about a 10 minute walk to Southwark) but one block from the double-decker city busses that can easily take you anywhere in London. Overall we were very happy with our accomodation choice!
